Curiosità

Say Uncle is a 2005 independent black comedy film. Written and directed by Peter Paige, it stars Paige, Kathy Najimy, Anthony Clark, Gabrielle Union, Lisa Edelstein, and Melanie Lynskey. It was released theatrically in the United States on June 23, 2006.

Production

Kathy Najimy was the first actor that Paige reached out to. He said of her casting, "I loved her from Sister Act [etc.] but it was her New York theatre work [that] made me know that she would understand the darker undertones of the piece and the resonance that it was meant to have".

Referring to the rest of the actors, he said that his best friend recalled his saying that each one was a genius. Paige said that when they gathered to [do a read-through], "I was overwhelmed. I couldn't believe everyone had shown up to help me make this movie".

Say Uncle was filmed in Portland, Oregon, in the summer of 2004, during a break between the fourth and fifth seasons of Queer as Folk (on which Paige starred). It had a production schedule of 18 days. Paige chose to shoot on Super 16 mm: "I wanted the grain because of the kind of movie it is. It's heightened reality".
